Describe the daily lives of the people, native and non-native, who occupy the presidios, missions, ranchos, pueblos. "El Pueblo de Los Angeles Historical Monument is near the site of the early Los Angeles pueblo or town where forty-four settlers of Native American, African and European heritage journeyed more than one-thousand miles across the desert from present-day northern Mexico and established a farming community in September 1781. ... El Pueblo is a living museum that continues to fulfill its unique role as the historic and symbolic heart of the city, reflecting the Native American, African American, Spanish, Anglo, Mexican, Chinese, Italian and French cultures that contributed to its early history. Of the monument’s twenty-seven historic buildings, eleven are open to the public as businesses or have been restored as museums." - http://elpueblo.lacity.org/elpau.htm As a result, students will become more culturally competent by experiencing and immersing themselves in the culturally-rich, historical site.
